Oh dear. Penelope needs to check in with the single parent support group for moral support.
Its August and Penelope, just taking a coffee break and reassuring each other.

Awww! She needs a big hug! …… And for childcare and healthcare to be free. But all I can do is the hug.

All the parents shown in the comic are S tier, but Penelope is quadruple-S tier.

Single parents are superheros. I’m tired just taking care of *myself*. I def can’t take care of someone small alone while also doing everything I currently do

This hits me. I have a friend who’s a single (human) mom of two, one in high school, the other in middle school. She’s treading water and barely making ends meet, and unfortunately her own family is toxic and has largely left her hang out to dry, financially (not paying debts) and emotionally. Does everything for her kids, but neglects self care and it’s really starting to weigh on her health and wellbeing.

I was a single mom of only 1 child. I feel this soooooo much lol.
And then, when she decided to move out with her boyfriend (after she turned 18), my dad moved in almost immediately for me to take care of HIM. Somehow, he’s harder to keep happy than my child was.
You’ve got this Penelope! You can do it!

You’ll manage. Lots of single mothers do it; not by choice but they do it.

I genuinely love how everyone in these comics are so supportive of each other. It’s just so wholesome.

Really hoping for Penelope and August to get close.
The widow life is lonely, and it’s normal to find a next partner.
